Branden Grace tied at second place after a decent third round show
Branden Grace landed in the second place on the leaderboard after a stunning performance in the third round of the Alfred Dunhill Championship.
Many players including the South African, Grace, raised the level of their game as the tournament went into its last phase.
He exhibited a small portion of his vast potential and came out on top, a position behind the leader of the Alfred Dunhill Championship, Charl Schwartzel.
It seemed as if there was no stopping the 24-year-old, he went on making one birdie after another and by the end of the day he had carded seven birdies.
The South African made two birdies on the front-nine, which were recorded on the 4th and the 6th hole.
The only thing worth forgetting about his day was the 9th hole. Grace played an awful 9th hole and tarnished the performance he exhibited throughout the day.
After he started on the back-nine of the course, the South African looked like a man on a mission. The rest of the day was nothing short of remarkable for Grace, as he continued his run of birdies.
He went on to record birdies on the 11th, 13th, 14th, 15th and the 17th hole.
Grace is one of the most highly talented young golfers in the world. He made a huge impact on the tour when he won four tournaments on the European Tour during his first year, after receiving his tour card.
The tournament is being led by another South African, Charl Schwartzel who, after playing two stunning rounds of golf, truly deserved the first position.
Schwartzel was tied at the 2nd place with five other players after the first day of the Alfred Dunhill Championship. After that there was no stopping the South African as he recorded a score of 8-under 64 in the next rounds.
The Alfred Dunhill Championship is underway at the Leopard Creek Golf Club. The course is home to numerous wild animals and a diverse species of birds.
The location provides a delightful atmosphere for golf.
As the tournament heads into the last round, Grace will be a man to look out for. With all that he is capable of, the tournament is surely to have an exhilarating finish.
